Senator Dick Durbin has raised alarms over President Donald Trump’s strategy heading into the 2026 elections, accusing him of trying to “rig the system” to stay in power.

Durbin warned that Trump’s efforts to reshape the political landscape are aimed at securing control beyond the reach of a fair and free election.

Durbin emphasized that Trump’s ultimate goal is clear: to rewrite the rules of the game in his favor. This sharp criticism has sparked concerns over the integrity of future elections and the potential threats to democracy if such actions continue.
